Harnessing Meditation for Recovery: Insights from George Quant
So if we're hardwired for greater potentiality, if we're only using 10% of the brain, and it's neurological pathways in the nervous system that are keeping us from connecting to the 90% that we're not using, we have to ask ourselves then, if we're hardwired to use 100% but we're only using 10%, then what is blocking it?
What if the key to overcoming addiction lay within your own mind? In this episode of Safe Recovery, Monica Richardson sits down with George Quant, a seasoned meditation expert, to explore how meditation can be a powerful tool in the journey to recovery. George opens up about his personal path to discovering meditation and how it became a cornerstone in his battle against addiction.

Stress, often a trigger for insomnia and relapse, can be managed through regular meditation practices. George highlights the unique benefits of meditating between 6 pm and 8 pm, a time he believes is crucial for achieving a state of restful energy that sustains throughout the day.
He also introduces his technique of quantum meditation, designed to tap into the untapped potential of the mind. By connecting with the 90% of the brain we typically don't use, individuals can unlock a state of pure, positive energy. The episode wraps up with an exciting announcement about an upcoming webinar focused on meditation and its role in recovery.
